Loomls. Ilurd has seen several of the news- paper accounts of the injunction pro- ceedings to restrain him froth com- municating with Mrs. Foy, his bcne- factress. but will discuss none of the several stories which have been circli- lated. Yesterday. 'I‘he Palladium ran down a story which was given considerable credence. Wednesday night. to the ef— fect that Hard and Mrs. Foy had gone to Alantlc City and that the latter had been follchd and brought homo by relatives. General Harmon, Mrs. Foy's son. and Mrs. Fey and her nurse went to Atlantic City. last winter. and stay- ed there for some time, but during that entire period Iiurd was attending his rocitations in college. Hurd's residence since he left the Foy home. in Dwight street. has been at 170 York street. He has a modest, comfortably furnished room there. and he boards in the Yale commons. ills habits are described as thrifty and economical. and he is liked in his boarding house.

Ills father died about ten years ago, His mother has been dead about five or six years. His father was a mechanic and a traveling salesman at one time for Hoyt. the New Canaan nurseryman. He was an old soldier and had a pen- sion. When he died he left practically nothing so far as is known. “Ernest Hui-d used to play the organ in the Wilton Congregational church. before he went to college. He was al- ways a quiet. unassuming "lad. and the people here consider him of good. clean character. “He was prepared for college In what was known at that time as Chase‘s school. in Norwaik. He has only come home about once in two or three months. and during the summer months. since he left for college. We, ' heard here that he was taken up by a wealthy woman who had assisted him. and last summer we heard that she sent him to Europe for the purpose of completing his musical education and perfecting his German. He visited Germany. I understand. We all were pleased here to learn that he had found a person of means who had tak- en an interest in him. We thought nothing about it and the sentiment here now is in favor of him. Mr. Kecler said that Hard had a sis- ter living. but no other near relative. She is about 40 years old and unmar» ried. The house which was left by their parents is in her name. but she lives in Bridgeport most: of the time. Has Sympathy of Wilton People.

Since childhood he has lived among them: ever a quiet, gentleman— Iy boy; as a young man. studious and a lover of music. Those who have known him from childhood know the quiet. preaccupied air which has al- ways been a characteristic of his. and which has recently been called the stare of the hypnotic. and feel the ab- surdity of the accusation and bélieve In his integrity and uprightness of character.

James, of Rowayaon, through his counsel. has made a mo- tion that the judgment against him in favor of I). Preston Atwood for $240 in the court of Common Pies be re opened. The matter will be argued today in the short calendar session of the court. Judgment was today given Atwood for failure of James to comply with an order of the court. The Atwood suits against nominally delinquent executors have run up against such a sentiment that. now the offer is made by Atwood to settle for $150 each. One of the best inform- ed lawyers in the state strongly ad- vises against any such proceedings. He says that the suits can all be kept alive until the next session of the Gen. cral Assembly, which will come to- :cther in January and that body can be relied on to pass promptly some re- lief measure, which will apply to cases pending in court and so will let them all out. He was emphatic that there wasno need whatever to be scared into paying anything at all to the Instiga- tors of litigation which is no universal. ly condemned. SPECIAL TRAIN T0 CONVENTION.
